Jane Millington-Jones, BACP

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens attentively and follows the person’s pace, helping them name feelings and decide what to focus on. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. These approaches can help with anxiety, low mood, stress and motivation.

Jane also uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationship or attachment issues are central. That work helps people identify key emotional needs and practise new ways of responding in close connections. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative; she will discuss options and try methods that match your goals and preferences as the work progresses.

Online therapy gives flexibility to fit sessions around work, family and treatment schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when writing feels clearer than speaking. These formats make it possible to continue therapy without travel and to choose what works best for everyday life.
